not a day has gone by without a stop by ryan or romney in the buckeye state. he visited a soup kitchen in youngstown where he held a town hall. romney held rallies in lebanon, ohio. >> i need you to get other people that voted for barack obama to join our team. we need ohio. if we get ohio, we'll be able to take back america. >> but can romney win this election without ohio? this was ohio senator's rob portman's take on sunday. >> look, you can probably win the presidency without ohio but i wouldn't want to take the risk. no republican has. >> well, let's look at the map. we might as well. rob portman asked us to do it so let's do it. let's give the president ohio. that puts him up to 255. the two other states where he's ahead, that means he would win florida, all of the southern states. he's at 248. give him the west, colorado, nevada, he is still short and needs to find seven others. right now the president is ahead in wisconsin and i haven't seen evidence otherwise. the president appears to be ahead in new hampshire. so look what that leaves us. 269. well,

now they're trying to blame the romney/ryan ticket for making this an issue. and with respect to iraq, we have the same position before the withdrawal, which was we agreed with the obama administration. let's have a status of forces agreement to make sure that we secure our gains. the vice president was put in charge of those negotiations by president obama. and he failed to get the agreement. we don't have a status of force agreement because they failed to get one. that's what we are talking about. and when it comes to our veterans, we owe them a great debt of gratitude for what they have done for us, including your son, beau. but we also want to make sure that we don't lose the things that we fought so hard to get. with respect to afghanistan, the 2014 deadline, we agree with the 2014 transition. but what we also want to do is make sure that we're not projecting weakness abroad, and that's what's happening here. this benghazi issue would be a tragedy in and of itself, but unfortunately it's indicative of a broader problem, and that is what we are watching on

they put the romney and ryan ticket on the defense. but i've heerd governor romney say this. he says i want to work in a bipartisan way. i want to work with democrats on capitol hill. i want to do what george w. bush did with no child left behind. that's to allow the congress -- that is to allow the legislative branch to be a part of the process. and thus in the process create or draft a piece of legislation that we can all work with. so i think it's a combination of both answers, alex. >> president obama had tough reviews following the first debate. what do you think is the greatest challenge in round two? >> the white house said to make adjustments. i think it's to make the adjustments without overcorrecting in some way. i don't think the voters want him to come out completely swinging in some kind of way that would be unlike him in this debate. he's got to somehow figure out how to be himself. perhaps to talk about some of the specifics that doug mentioned. to step up his game a little bit and to do it which will be dichb than what we saw the first time around. he'll be ta

enthusiastic about romney, and they're enthusiastic about ryan. the winner of this race will have real legitimacy. this is not going to be a thing where they say, well, he really didn't represent our caution. now that -- if the president wins re-election, then you're going to see sort of policies along the clinton line when it comes to tax on top earners. you're going to see the health care bill stay in place. you'll see regulation of wall street stay in place and see these things happen. if by the same token if romney wins, he'll have the authority of an election behind him, so i think this gives the next president a real boost when he gets in there. >> i think one of the key things about the debate is it's change -- we will look back on it as an historic moment in this election. it upended things. this is what it upended. barack obama was supposed to be the sort of moderate centrist fellow who looked at mitt romney, this extreme, strange fellow. by the time that debate was over, mitt romney seemed a completely moderate centrist figure who showed

he covers romney and ryan on a day-to-day basis. i guess maybe he was a little bit lowering expectations, although the pressure is certainly going to be on paul ryan in that thursday night debate against joe biden, jim. >> reporter: that's right, wolf. and i think you heard mitt romney say just before that clip that joe biden has been in a whole number of debates. in excess of, i think, a dozen. i think he's had 15 to 18 debates over the years, and then went ton to say paul ryan, that may be his first debate. i'm not sure. we would have to go back and check, but i would be amazed if paul ryan had not done any debates during his congressional years over there in congress. and just to pick up on what you're talking about just before the break a few minutes ago, about those loopholes and deductions, wolf. i can tell you that i think that your interview there made some news on that front, because what we've heard mitt romney say that he would help, that he would pay for those tax cuts in part through what he called a, quote, additional
